Ah the old go for the slowest method to get rid of the protagonist and give em a chance to escape or for someone else to rescue them trick. Split face must’ve graduated from the Blofeld College for Villains.
One heck of a swan song….and other situations Tracy has been in. Such as early 1969 when he got clobbered by a piece of roof tile and sent for a ride via the magnetic air car or having to evacuate his stake-out for Bribery and Ugly Christine in late summer 1966 when an airliner crashed near the site where the stolen space coupe was. Through the years he’s had a lot of close calls. How are he and the others going to get out of this one?
No way would all four of them “disappear” by morning when zoo keepers come to work. If there is a manhunt after this I get the feeling that people will simply be shot “trying to escape”.
Team Tracy missed a golden opportunity to answer at least one of the many, many unanswered questions their stories always leave behind by not bringing back our beloved Lena to do the chomping.
Hmmmm….Alligators/ crocodiles feeding in the snowy winter? “Cold blooded” is an actual thing. And let us not dwell on the violations of police procedure in going to arrest a known psychotic killer wanted for a recent bombing ….Bit suspension of belief is an important thing to excercise….
“Never smile at a crocodile, you can’t get friendly with a crocodile, beyond that grin he’s imagining how well you’ll look beneath his skin!” (Never mind) and it’s not even Monday!
2-…Instead of wasting bullets on these louts, let’s take advantage of these other opportunities providence has provided. First, I’ll rub this hunk a ham I was saving for a snack all over Sam. THEN…
3-…when the others wake up hungry, THEY’LL EAT HIM CAUSE HE SMELLS SO TASTY. Then they go to prison for life!
SHADY: SHEER GENIUS GRANDPA! But what if they try to pin it on the alligator? GRANDPA: He’s locked up and can’t get out. Also alligators don’t like ham. I think.
Wouldn’t the alligator be LESS likely to eat them after he’s already has a steak? Alligators don’t usually attack people unless they need food. And how much do alligators eat? Four grown human beings?
Deja Vu – Splitface is making the same elaborate murder scenario mistake as the Howells did with Frisk – too much to go wrong – just put a bullet into each one’s head and the dastardly deed is done…
Tracy and his gang should be glad that Splitface thinks like a super-villain instead of a common criminal, otherwise they’d all be dead at the bottom of a lake or a mine shaft or some other pedestrian demise….
Cute close-up (panel 1); food for thought (panel 2); four sleeping angels (panel 3). —Plus Lorenzo, of course. Slowly he stalked. Slowly-er he masticated steak. Brrnggg! Suddenly, someone’s Wrist Genie sounded an Intruder Alert, awakening some defective detective or other.
Never before have I seen four such highly-rated crimefighters fall so easily into a known villain’s obvious ambush. So, why not a deus ex machina to save them from their own ineptitude?…

Am I the only one who is thinking the main course might end up being someone else, lol?

Regardless how this turns out….considering the bomb that went off last time; pretty sloppy police work for all 4 of them to end up like THIS….

Unknown to Splitface, the meat was tainted, & Lorenzo died of food poisoning before he could get to our heroes.
